I love growing my own chamomile to dry the fragrant flowers to make my a calming tea. I harvest the flowers as soon as the petals are fully opened. The flowers are very fragrant reminiscent of fruity apples. I place picked flowers on a paper plate to dry for a few weeks before storing. Annual flower. 

There are two types of chamomile, German and Roman. German is an annual and has a branching out habit. Plants get taller at about 24 inches. Roam chamomile is a perennial and grows more bushy and compact staying at about 12 inches tall. Both are used in the same way and have similar fruit apple fragrance.

Ideal Growing Conditions

Sun: Chamomile likes full sun but in areas with extreme heat, its best to plant them in a spot that gets bright morning sun with some afternoon shade. 

Water: Allow the soil to dry out a little bit in-between watering.

Soil: Anything grows great in soil rich in organic matter, but chamomile is a wild flower so it doesn't need the best of soil to thrive. It does need soil that has good drainage because it is  susceptible to root rot. 

Fertilizer: Do not fertilize chamomile as this will encourage lots of leafy growth instead of flowers. 

When & How To Sow Seeds: For a spring crop, direct sow seeds after your last spring frost date. For a fall crop, or if you are located in a mild winter climate, direct sow seeds when you start planting your fall garden, or at minimum 4 months before your first winter frost date. To direct sow, sprinkle a few seeds over the soil surface in a sunny location because these seeds require light to germinate. Press the seeds down so they make contact with the soil and gentltly water them in. 

Germination: 10-14 days

Days To Maturity: Around 2-3 months after direct sowing the seed

How & When To Harvest: For the best chamomile harvest, pick flowers daily in the morning after the dew dries, when petals are fully open and flat. Pinch just below the flower head, avoiding the stems to prevent bitterness in your tea. Frequent harvesting encourages more blooms, while letting flowers go to seed signals the plant to stop producing. With regular picking, you can enjoy a harvest lasting several weeks or even months.

Common Diseases: Chamomile also doesn't have too many disease issues. But in humid or wet conditions they can get leaf spot, powdery mildew, or anthracnose. Spray with 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water on the stems and leaves below the flowers to clean and disinfect. 

Common Pests: Chamomile generally has few pest problems, with aphids being the most common due to its tender leaves. A small aphid presence is usually fine and can even attract beneficial insects like ladybugs. However, if new growth wilts or flower stems droop from heavy infestations, treatment is needed. Since the flowers are harvested for tea, avoid spraying them directly—first harvest the blooms, then hose off aphids and apply insecticidal soap only to the stems. Alternatively, plant plenty of chamomile to ensure a good harvest, as you'll need many flowers if you're aiming to dry enough for long-term use.

Great Toy, But Not Durable
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1)
I bought this toy for my five-month-old American Eskimo dog, and he loved it! My dog isn't a big squeaker fan, but he had so much fun with this toy. He played with it nonstop for about an hour, and it was so fun to see him enjoying his toy. Unfortunately, I had to take it away from him because after a while, he was trying to rip out the ridges that line the alligator's back. He managed to rip out two already and was working on his third. I'm afraid that out of boredom, he will try to tear off the rest of the ridges and then the alligator's teeth and claws. I think that I will have to snip off all of the small pieces before giving this toy to my dog again. Even though the toy didn't stay intact for longer than 30-45 minutes, I don't regret buying it. It instantly caught my dog's attention and kept it. This is a good toy. It has 16 squeakers and would be a good cuddle toy since it's soft and big. This toy is longer than my dog! It's about 30 inches long!

Holy Smokes, I Need Sound-Blocking Headphones
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: 2X-Large (Pack of 1)
This summer I bought the smaller version of this alligator squeaky toy for my large malamute-mix named Rascal. He's a big BIG puppy with an enormous amount of energy. Squeaky toys drive him crazy and he can't get enough of them. The more squeakers the more hyper he becomes. I started looking for the perfect Christmas present for him and caught sight of this little guy. Couldn't pass him up. 32 squeakers! Rascal would faint with excitement. This toy is a little longer than 4 feet long- which is about how long my dog is. It's by far the largest toy he's ever gotten. The head has a rattle in it. And the long body has 32 squeakers individually sewn into their own pocket- so even once he has chewed one of the noise-makers out, he still has many more to go. A few of the squeakers came defective, but I suppose that should be expected when so many noisy parts are involved. I don't think he noticed. The enormous amount of racket he made with the rest of them kept him busy enough. The second I gave him this toy he bounced around like any kid would on Christmas. Excited as heck. He spent a few good hours flinging the toy up in the air, running around the house and yard with it, and just laying around trying to chew each of those noisy things out from the body. He hasn't managed to get any of the squeaker toys out yet- it's been three days of constant play. He spends a few good hours on it each day. The fabric is getting kind of slobber-soaked, but that's presumable with dog toys. His dark black hair also easily sticks to this fabric, so it's beginning to look a lot dirtier than it actually is. But I'm sure he'll destroy it before my inner neat-freak feels the need to clean it. My biggest concern are the felt teeth and claws on the toy. They can easily be torn off and swallowed by the dog. If you want to eliminate that, prior to giving your dog the toy- just take a pair of scissors and cut them off. I just monitored my pup closely and took away the pieces once he removed them. Aside from the felt pieces and the fact the toy attracts hair- I think this was by far one of the best investments I've made for my dog. It's huge, keeps him entertained, and makes plenty of noise! I'm debating buying sound-blocking headphones before I purchase another toy like this again. Very noisy! But he loves it to death, and that makes it all worthwhile. Highly recommend!

My dog’s favorite toy
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: 2X-Large (Pack of 1), Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: 2X-Large (Pack of 1)
This is my dog’s favorite toy! She carries it around everywhere and loves the squeaker. It’s a great size and keeps her entertained for a while. Holds up pretty well too, especially for how much she plays with it.

"Gator" under supervision for husky pup is loads of fun for her.
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1), Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: X Large (Pack of 1)
Fun loving hyper 7 month old female husky whose an aggressive chewer loves her "Gator". She loves the squeakers, does chew on any & all parts of her toy as she like many textures from soft/fuzzy to hard. 1st Gator we got her lasted a few months. She did chew threw a good amount, it did get dirty & most of the 16 squeakers were missing but I saved like 5 of them & sowed them back in. Once she started chewing thru the head & into the stuffing we ordered a replacement & she's so happy. I have 1 picture of the Gator though it might not look like it's done it was. Zero squeakers remaining, head has 1/2 stuffing removed, torn stitches but not enough where the body could come apart. She managed to eat the stuffing but she was not hurtful & we were able to stop her each time. I recommend "Gator" w/ supervision if you have an aggressive chewing pup. It's durable enough for some tugging & "fetch". It advertised "encourages digging" @ the squeaker but she didn't. She tugged, chomped' "fetch" & whipped the toy w her head but had a blast every time. She actively searches for Gator when she wants to play w/ her toys. 16 squeakers.

Toy disintegrates - a hazard for dogs
Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: 2X-Large (Pack of 1), Color: Squeaker Matz Gator, Size: 2X-Large (Pack of 1)
I buy these types of toys for my dogs. They rip them apart and pop the squeakers, having a great time. This is the third time over the past 2 or 3 years I've bought this particular toy. The quality has fallen off a cliff. Whenever my dogs shake it, flecks of the material fly off. These small pieces are very difficult to vacuum and, more seriously, get caught in my dog's teeth and throat. This never happened before, and they actually still have an old version that I occasionally resew with replacement squeakers. If you've bought this toy in the past couple of years, know that this is not the same product.
